Good morning,

Having read through the “Safer at Home FAQ” https://corona-virus.la/faq, and having many clients choose to stay at home, I am stopping the in-person boot camp classes.

I will be providing videotaped classes beginning on Monday the 23rd.

I will be sending out more info soon, and also a special webpage and email newsletter with tips and suggestions for training at home.

I’ll try to keep messages short and succinct, as I realize that everyone is filled with lots of information.

The best way to contact me - as always, is to email me at: stephen@bootcamppasadena.com

I’ll update here as the day goes on.

Take care,

Stephen

A Letter To My Clients Regarding COVID-19 by Stephen Cooper

March 14, 2020

When I first began personal training over 25 years ago, my personal reason for training was mostly for vanity. It’s fun when people give you compliments on your looks, it becomes who you are. The health benefits just came along as a bonus for me. That’s not to say or discount that I’ve always thought that fitness training and diet were important for the brain, mood, and physiological health.

But over the years and as I age, my own reasons for training have changed. My goal for many years has been to be as strong and as healthy as possible to live life to the fullest. To create a strong foundation from which I can travel, ride my motorcycle with my son, hike, and be there for my family. Basically, I want to be in a position to ask my body to due whatever I want, and it will respond without hesitation.

Boot Camp Will Continue With Regular Classes

We are fortunate to have a client who is an infectious disease specialist (MD), and I’ve spoken with him about any additional precautions I need to adhere to along with any advice from the WHO and CDC.

Class Precautions

  • If you come early to class, you may have already seen that I have a habit of wiping down the equipment with Clorox wipes. This has been consistent before the new coronavirus. This, of course, will continue with special attention. If I run out of wipes, I will make a hospital-grade disinfectant with Clorox.

  • We will refrain from using the boxing gloves as not to encourage contact in this manner.

  • Keep 3 feet or more distance from one another. This is pretty common for us in class, but just to keep in mind.

  • If you or someone in your home is sick, use common sense and stay home. (Contact me for workouts to do at home. I can help.)

  • Cover your cough or sneeze with your elbow or tissue.

  • Use hand sanitizer (at least 60% alcohol) before and or/after class.

But, Do Exercise

I wouldn’t start a vigorous exercise program right now, which could cause even more stress…but I would continue to exercise. The coming together, sharing and talking does help. Mentally and physically.

Financial Strain

I’ve already heard from clients who have lost multi-million dollar contracts. In my own family, my son’s job hours have been cut by 30% and my daughter who works in Port Townsend, WA found out that her work is closing today and they aren’t sure when they will reopen.

Having said this, I hope that we can help each other. If you want to train, and you do not have the money coming in, we can work out a deal. Train now - pay later.

On the flip side, if you can pay for multiple months ahead, I will give you a fair discount.

Wrapping Up

I always try to look at the bright side of things. My hope is that this “pandemic” can bring us closer. What makes my boot camp classes is YOU, and your involvement. Sharing, laughing, ribbing…it’s a community that I truly treasure. I’m here, strong and healthy and ready to help.

Contact me

Please contact me (email) with any questions.

February Boot Camp Details, and Floppy Finned Orcas by Stephen Cooper

I was reading from "Move Your DNA..." by Katy Bowman (Book link) where she was talking about "diseases of captivity".  She mentioned how the dorsal fins of captive orcas have this "folded or floppy fin syndrome".

There are varying theories about why the fins droop, but scientists hypothesize that missing loads (swimming in open oceans with currents and speed) and tight-circle swimming in captivity, amongst other things, causes this wobbly cartilage.

So what in the world does this have to do with you?

What is your environment like? 

  • How much time do you spend sitting while driving to work? 

  • How about sitting at your work desk?

  • Sitting and watching Netflix, sports, or consuming social media? 

My hope in creating the boot camp workouts is to give you a wide variety of activities in which to challenge your body. 

Different movements including sprints, jumping, movement with weights, balance exercises, and stretches.  All there to push your body to adapt to a healthier you.

Seriously check yourself to see if you are devoting time (yes, you have time) to moving your body.  Be it dance, hiking, or whatever that puts some load on your structure, and challenges you.

If you aren't getting it done on your own, come join us.

Master the basics by Stephen Cooper

IMG_9430.png

I posted this pic on Instagram today.

So often on social media I see pretty wild stuff when it comes to exercise and fitness.  

Things like breathing exercises in ice baths, or whether or not to go “full carnivore” diet.

May I suggest mastering the basics, like getting to sleep early and actually getting out of bed when your alarm goes off.  

Start with that.

Once a Year Special Starts Today (Ends Dec 14) by Stephen Cooper

Olympic National Park

Olympic National Park

I hope that you had a beautiful Thanksgiving.  My daughter recently moved to Washington State, so we spent a chilly few days near the Olympic National Park staying with her and her fiancé.

The promise used to be that technology would free up time so we’d have more leisure.  I don’t see this happening.  I only see more stressed out clients with more hectic days.

If you train with us you can check off having to think about what exercise and workouts you should be doing.  You just have to show up.

I’ll keep you focused on what works, like putting in consistent work and attention to the basics of training, sleep, and simple nutrition.  The real keys to achieving and maintaining long term results.

This brings me to the special for 2019/2020.

Starting today and ending on December 14th, you can prepay and save 15% on as many camps as you’d like for 2020.  You can buy as many months as you like at the discounted rate or pay for the whole year. It’s totally up to you. You’ll just need to decide how committed you are and how this fits into your budget.  (Regular prices for camps vary from $125- $175 depending on the number of classes per month.)

But, remember that this special offer ends on December 14th. Payments can be made in person or online, just let me know what works best for you.

December will be a pretty normal month where I’ll probably just take the 24th and 25th off.  It may change if I hear from enough boot campers that they’ll be out of town.

December Boot Camp Details:

MWF AM Camp 5:45 AM- 6:30 AM
 PM Camp 6:00 PM - 6:45 PM 

12 classes for $165

Tu / Thur AM Camp 5:45 AM - 6:30 AM
 PM Camp 6:00 PM - 6:45 PM 

8 classes for $125

$18 (per drop-in)

Note: No Classes Dec. 24th and 25th

Class: Each class is 45 minutes.

This will be my 11th year running my boot camp.  It’s not easy running a solo business, so to those of you who train with me month after month, and especially year after year, I really appreciate it and am very grateful to you.

Best,
Coop

Current clients, if you haven't already, please confirm if you will be continuing in December.  We can also discuss your preferred rate and how the above discount may apply.

It's 6:30 in the morning, and you've achieved more than most. by Stephen Cooper

I assume that you are and busy (to say the least).

I see it more and more.  Clients who can’t attend workouts after work...because the work never stops :(

Between working late at your office, being stuck in traffic, or having to finish work at home, it seems like the only time that belongs to you is the first thing in the morning.

It may take a little getting used to, but considering it may be the only time that you will fit in time for yourself, I encourage you to take this morning time for you.  And just think, you'll be all done with your exercise by 6:30 in the morning.

This is a special month, one that has fewer days of boot camp.  (I’ll be visiting my daughter in WA during the week of the 25th.)  This makes this month a little cheaper than other months, and you can really commit to each class.  

Be thankful and grateful this month.  Make the effort and commitment to eat well, be active, and rest and sleep enough.   

November Boot Camp Details:

MWF AM Camp 5:45 AM- 6:30 AM

Accountability Plan for October by Stephen Cooper

View near my daughter’s place in Washington State.

View near my daughter’s place in Washington State.

Note to Active Clients:

Good morning,

I want to make this a great month for you. I treat this like personal training and want to give you the attention like I would a one on one client.

I first need to know if you are continuing this month?

If so, read on...

Do you want me to hold you accountable, or is your training style more of "I'll just show up when I can fit it in"? Let me know by responding to this email.


What is your schedule like for October?

Will you miss certain days?

If you miss a workout unexpectedly, just shoot me a quick email on why you missed and when you'll make it up. (Know that you come to any workout mornings or evenings.) I ask why you missed so I know if you are injured, sick, or just missed for no reason. This helps me to adjust or coach you and your training.

What is one habit or one goal that you want to work on this month?

Thanks,

Coop

You've Got Choices, But Your Time is Ticking Away by Stephen Cooper

Washington State, from my son’s recent solo motorcycle trip.

Washington State, from my son’s recent solo motorcycle trip.

The other morning one of my long-time boot camp clients arrived early. I usually get to our location around 5:25 AM, about 20 minutes before camp begins. He was surprised to see me hunched down cleaning the kettlebells with disinfectant wipes. He mentioned that clients would probably find it surprising to know about the behind the scenes stuff that I do.

(Video - getting it done, no matter what. I share this to show it doesn’t have to be glamorous. or posed.)

The cleaning of equipment is a given, and a no brainer. The other stuff is not usually stuff that I talk about.

I worry a lot about my clients, and yes it does keep me up at night.

It’s a puzzle for me to try and create programming that is safe and effective. I try to keep in mind what weight a client uses while encouraging them to increase the resistance appropriately in order to keep forward progress. I’m also reviewing which clients have injuries and how can we work around them.

So programming has to be safe, effective, and I add new methods and exercises if I feel they are useful.

The next big piece of the puzzle is consistency and “motivation”. I’ll admit, I’m not a fan of motivation. I’d rather that clients work on building habits towards goals. Motivation is a cute meme, or a photo on Instagram oftentimes not followed up by action. If motivation causes you to act, and actually do something, then great…but do not rely on motivation.

So how do you build the necessary habits? You just do.

You commit and show up on time. Maybe the commitment is to me, or yourself. But do it. No excuses.

For the month of September, I set some personal goals.

  1. Meditate 10 minutes each day.

  2. Take at least a 1-2 minute cold shower.

  3. Walk at least 10,000 steps. (I used the free version of the Pacer app, https://www.mypacer.com/)

I did these for me. I honestly don’t get a thrill out of posting stuff like this on social media. That’s just me. I guess it comes from being an only child, and I just work that way.

I did, however, share my daily steps with my family via text.

IMG_8542.PNG

The walking and mediating were the most difficult. Before I started I only averaged about 3,000 steps, so I really had to commit. There were plenty of times when I wasn’t “motivated” and could have coasted, but I did each of these 3 items each day for this month. 100%. This had nothing to do with motivation, this was a commitment to myself, and also to basically walk my talk. I never ask clients to do what I’m not willing to do.

So it comes down to choices…and priorities. You need to be very honest with yourself (and if you are training with me), then me too. Are you making choices which are leading you towards your goals?

If your commitment has been less than you know you’re capable of, start today, and kick a.. .

If you need accountability and don’t want to hassle with creating your own programming, then show up and train with us. (And yes, you can share your goals with me, and I will check in with you.)

Morning Clients Getting in Some Reverse Band Crunches

Now that the kids are back in school, it's time for you to get back on track.  If you are like me, you train to stay healthy and strong so you can experience the most out of life with those you love.

It's time to put you back into your schedule.

And it's time to toss out the excuses.

Does it Work?
Here's a text from a current client...

"I really appreciate your coaching and the way you craft training sessions. 

I’m floored with how quickly my body responds to training - especially after the long hiatus.  I know I have a ways to go to build my strength back, but I know I’ll get there.   Thank you for being 99% of the equation!

I put myself on my own little paleo challenge. The goal is to do it through the end of September... after two weeks of consistency & training, I’m down almost ten pounds. Would love to knock out another ten, by the end of it!"

The Wisdom of John Wooden... by Stephen Cooper

From John Wooden “Wooden: A Lifetime of Observations and Reflections On and Off the Court”

I told my athletes in basketball, “I don’t care if you are tall, but I do care if you play tall.” It’s just another way of saying that I judged them by the level of effort they gave to the team’s journey. That’s the standard of measurement I used. I could also have told them, “Show me what you can do, don’t tell me what you can do.” Too often the big talkers are the little doers.

I think of this as I train my own clients.

My hope is that you show up on time and give it your all. Some days will be better than others, but push yourself.


Calendar:

No classes on Memorial Day May 27

Vacation: No classes June 12-27

April Boot Camp - Clear out the excuses, and execute by Stephen Cooper

With so many exercise options in the Pasadena area, I sometimes wonder what makes my approach to training different from the others.

What I often see is something like a Chucky Cheese experience. Lots of shouting, chaotic movements (think little kids darting every which way), and many distractions (lights, music, video screens).  

If you enjoy distractions such as these, then my classes are not for you.  My approach towards training you is the same I use for myself.  

  • I have a goal

  • I write a program for that goal

  • I go outside rain, cold, heat, whatever...and complete the training.  No distractions.

Is it effective?  I believe so.
